There is nothing more beautiful than seeing a bee fluttering round the garden intent on its mission to visit each and every bloom that I haven’t killed off I have lovingly nurtured.
However for my husband the furry bee..sts are unbearable.
This is where we have a problem, we have a host of these beautiful furry critters that have recently moved into the fascia boards under the guttering at the back of our house … much to my husbands disgust … or fear.
To add insult to injury this is the second invasion in less than 12 months! and at a quote at £85 for someone to remove them it looks like they maybe here for some time .. that and I ought to re-train to do that job instead!
These blighter’s have almost reduced my husband to a nervous wreck and if we can get him in the garden he never takes his eyes off our tenants nor does he venture in the garden much these days either … and neither can I open the windows upstairs on the back either without inviting in some new visitors!
Now what really gets me, not the fact my husband is not happy in the garden its the fact the first company that came out originally had supposedly sealed the hole and assured us at a great expense of £85 that they would not be able to come back ……… although I beg to differ … as I look up at the fascia boards I can quite certainly say that it’s now been 17 days and the critters have most certainly moved in ..
So for the time being our furry flying friends will remain… and I will continue to cajole the hubby into the garden … although I do have to say it’s certainly peaceful out here.

You should chase the company up and tell them! Can’t you make hubbie a bee hat lol poor him
i think he needs the full bee keeper suit to feel better! lol x
That’s so frustrating Jaime, I do hope you get it sorted soon. That must be awful – unless you’re enjoying the peace! I used to be scared of them but I’ve learnt to love them as my lens often shares their flower and they’re pretty close-up. Glad you like the photo 🙂
i am ok with them other than not being able to open 2 of the windows on the back but Ollie is grumpy about them!
thank you for allowing me to use your beautiful photo xx
I’d speak to the company,surely they haven’t sealed it properly. Nightmare.
thanks lovely now Britmums is over i need to get it sorted ..grrr
